Can anyone help me? Currently I'm just trying to get the gui to show. I'll worry about functionality later. That's a lot easier. I used the NetBeans Wysiwyg destkop application builder to build the layouts for the GUI. Here is what it looked like in there.
Image I'm just trying to convert it over to an application.

Re: Java GUI Problems.

Post by wearymemory »

You can't just call setVisible on a JPanel and expect it to show. You needed to add your mainPanel to your frame, and then call setVisible on that (which I have done for you at the bottom of your initComponents method).

Code: Select all

package test2;

Ok I see. You have to add the panel to the frame then set the frame as visible. Btw what does the pack() method do?

Edit. nvm I'll just look in the documentation or just google it.

Edit.

For anyone that sees this and wonders what the pack method does here is what is written from sun.
Causes this Window to be sized to fit the preferred size and layouts of its subcomponents. If the window and/or its owner are not yet displayable, both are made displayable before calculating the preferred size. The Window will be validated after the preferredSize is calculated.
